Unsubstantiated rumors and accusations targeting White House physician Rear Admiral Ronny Jackson, who was nominated by President Donald Trump to be Secretary of the Veterans Affairs Administration, have been propelled by media outlets and Democratic members of the Senate without any proof that those allegations were true. But where did these rumors and accusations start? Who was fighting to keep Dr. Jackson from being nominated and who wanted to smear his name publicly? According to four administration officials, the main allegations were brought forth by Vice President Mike Pence’s Army physician Dr. Jennifer Pena, who the officials contend has held a long-time grudge against Jackson because of his continuing promotions in the White House. She began her career at the White House during the Obama administration. According to the officials, Pena, who is still active military and assigned to the White House Military Office, did not follow proper protocol to report on the allegations. Instead, she went directly to the Senate with the support of some current and former White House medical staff who were her loyalists. None of the allegations she allegedly brought forth have been substantiated.

She sounds like one of the psychos from a “Lifetime “ movie. How did she get to be Pence’s doctor?
BTT
OK.
Context would be a big help!
Lady, you’re supposed to push the mop, not put it on your head!
Tester smuggles watermelons?
I wonder if the VP has visited her office. Just because she is the physician to Mr. Pence does not mean she’s the doctor he visits.
Her medical education is far from stellar. I do not see in Dr. Jackson’s record an excess of promotions, as implied by this Obama, possibly affirmative-action, appointee.
Dr.Jackson was a long time member of the WHMU (White House Medical Unit), and thus had significant seniority and experience to be named Obama’s personal physician in the second term. His personal physician during his initial term departed the WH, thus creating a vacancy, which Ronnie Jackson has filled very capably.
The second promotion was his appointment to Rear Admiral (Lower Half) A flag rank has become a routine appointment for the President’s personal physician at the conclusion of his term.
Clinton promoted Dr.Connie Mariano from Captain to Rear Admiral (Lower Half) and GW Bush promoted Col. Richard Tubb to Brigadier General under similar circumstances,
There is a rumor that although Dr. Jackson wished to step down after Obama left the WH, Donald Trump insisted that he remain as personal physician to the president.
I know this since I am the author of “The White House Physician” published in 2007.
My personal belief (uncorroborated) is that Ronny Jackson was targeted because he so ably spoke to Donald Trump’s good health in January. The combination of an angry woman appointed by the affirmative-action president and the disgraceful action of an unprofessional Democrat Senator has ruined a very good man’s reputation.
Psycho.
court martial
So what does Pence have to say?
Get that loon out of my White House.
“The memos were provided to CNN on the condition that the vice president’s physician not be named and that the memos not be published.”
Obama
Yeah, I get that. That whistleblower post, if true, shows a lot of unsavory goingS on in military medicine. Pena seems to have thrived personally and professionally in that environment. That she is where she is now doesn’t make me confident in the selection process. This story needs to blow back on her.
Show you what the Left will "embrace," as you might say, in order to enact their agenda.

No way he has a female Doctor.
If Pence trades her in we will have a better idea....
I had forgotten that line...gosh long ago.
